I was hoping someone could tell me what is meant by "High Clearance" versus "Regular Clearance" on a D17 Series IV actually meant?  Does that term just mean larger tire height  per say, or is it something else?

I think the general opinion is that a hi-clearance will have the taller spindles on the front, 16" front tires and 38" rears. Regular would be standard front spindles, 16" front tires and 28" rears.  Hi-crop will have the longer front spindles and 20" tires, special rear final drives that have an extra gear in them for more heighth and it will have 38" rears....of course some may disagree....

My opinion is worth what you pay for it. I think Eldon summed it up.

Thanks Eldon and Nathan, it does have 38" on the rear, as to the front I am not sure as it has been replaced due to some damage it received sometime in it's lifetime.  You guys are great!  Thanks again.
